—“Doesn’t Free Speech also come with the responsibility to listen to the criticism?”—
Does it? Listening to criticism? That’s not a property of free speech. That might be a property of utility, or debate or wisdom. But as someone who spends time on social media yourself what percentage of feedback is of any value whatsoever?
In my experience the only value of feedback is the discovery of opportunities to educate. It rarely if ever contributes anything at all to the discourse.
In other words the ancestral european presumption of equality that we inherited from the greeks and the steppe, is a presumption that allows for freedom of speech. But it places no obligation on others to listen. Otherwise Karens would overload the discourse even more than the left uses its gossiping, shaming, rallying, moralizing, psychologizing, and propaganda to overload the discourse.
